Raise It Up For Ma Dukes! T-Shirt: Stones Throw X Parra

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! Below is the benefit shirt for the late great J. Dilla's mother aka "Ma Dukes". Many of you know how much of a hardcore Dilla fan I am & others will soon find out as this is Dilla Month (marks the anniversary of his birth, last album released while living, & death) & starting on the 7th (birthday) until the end of the month I'll have a Dilla related post. But I couldn't wait til then as this deserves immediate attention. More details below the picture...


Please help support Maureen ‘Ma Dukes’ Yancey, the mother of the late James ‘J Dilla’ Yancey. If you are not familiar with the complexity of Ma Dukes situation, please read ‘The Battle For J Dilla’s Legacy’ in this month’s issue of Vibe Magazine (CLICK HERE).

Ma Dukes is currently battling the same disease (Lupus) that took her son’s life and completely removed from her son’s Estate. Parra was inspired by her story and teamed up with Stones Throw to create a tribute t-shirt for Ma Dukes (and mother’s across the world) where proceeds will go to Ma Dukes. The t-shirt can be ordered directly from HERE and available at the end of this week at these retailers:
